Group of migrants sends list of demands to Denver’s mayor

A group of migrants staying at an encampment in Denver sent a list of demands to the mayor’s desk.

That group said if their demands are met, they will voluntarily stay in city-funded shelters and leave their encampment where families, including young children, still live in tents. he migrants have been lobbied by Denver Human Services to get off the street and into shelters — an offer that remains, according to city officials. But they are holding out and said the city has reneged on its deal with them, while the city maintains it will continue to offer services to migrants that choose shelter over encampments.

“The camp as a collective came up with a list of demands,” V Reeves, a migrant advocate, said.

That came after a petition by city officials to move people from an encampment near train tracks and under a bridge to indoor shelters funded by the city.

Oh, they didn't see that coming. They thought they would be grateful for the handouts. But like anything else, if it is gotten for doing nothing, then the demands increase, because the pittance isn't bringing them the good life now is it Denver.

Bot if this doesn't change a lot of people's positions, then nothing will I guess.

“Illegals are making demands of the city now.”

They did the same in Europe. That eventually led to riots.

I’d personally send back a Musk like GFY reply..

But the mayor will probably give in to their demands.

We need federal law to prevent cities and states harboring illegals.

I wonder what part of “shove it” they might not understand.

Who do they think they are?? That list of demands was obviously made by someone group of social do-gooders; it certainly wasn’t drawn up by the migrants, though I’m sure they think they’re entitled. Well they’re NOT! Of all the nerve! Go back to your own country and see how many of those demands fly there! This just burns me up!

I guess this is the new trend.

The UCLA students listed demands earlier:
Airsoft goggles, knee and elbow pads, utility gloves - without reinforced knuckles – bright flashlights with strobe, rope, zip ties, skater helmets, shields, wood to construct a barrier ,lotion without sunscreen and non-steroid inhalers. Also needed is “hot food for lunch” and gluten-free food. No nuts or bananas.
No item can be from Israel or from a company with ties to Israel.

The demands:

In all, the migrants presented 13 demands to the city of Denver. Messages shared with FOX31 show the demands are:

Migrants will cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients provided by the City instead of premade meals – rice, chicken, flour, oil, butter, tomatoes, onions, etc… Also people will not be punished for bringing in & eating outside food.

Shower access will be available without time limits & can be accessed whenever – we are not in the military, we’re civilians.

Medical professional visits will happen regularly & referrals/connections for specialty care will be made as needed.

All will receive the same housing support that has been offered to others. They cannot kick people out in 30 days without something stable established.

There needs to be a clear, just process before exiting someone for any reason – including verbal, written & final warnings.

All shelter residents will receive connection to employment support, including work permit applications for those who qualify.

Consultations for each person/family with a free immigration lawyer must be arranged to discuss/progress their cases, & then the City will provide on-going legal support in the form of immigration document clinics & including transportation to relevant court dates.

The City will provide privacy for families/individuals within the shelter.

No more verbal or physical or mental abuse will be permitted from the staff, including no sheriff sleeping inside & monitoring 24/7 – we are not criminals & won’t be treated as such.

Transportation for all children to & from their schools will be provided until they finish in 3 weeks.

No separating families, regardless of if family members have children or not. The camp will stay together.

The City must schedule a meeting with the Mayor & those directly involved in running the Newcomer program ASAP to discuss further improvements & ways to support migrants.

The City must provide all residents with a document signed by a City official in English & Spanish with all of these demands that includes a number to call to report mistreatment.

Below is just their first demand. And it’s a doozy.

1. Migrants will cook their own food with fresh, culturally appropriate ingredients provided by the City instead of premade meals – rice, chicken, flour, oil, butter, tomatoes, onions, etc… Also people will not be punished for bringing in & eating outside food.

I’ll be following this story to see if Denver folds. Because if they do, I’ll be sending off my own list of demands. Actually, I’ll have only one demand:

1. Keep these arrogant freeloaders in Denver.

Let them overwinter in their tents.

Most of them will be dead by spring.
